In 2009, our animal friends didn’t just disapprove — they sneered, snarled, grimaced, glowered, harrumphed and hachhkkthhed. Behold, a sampling of this year’s charm school dropouts. (Click picture to view original post.)
Year in Cute 2009: Why Are You Looking at Me Like That?
January 4, 2010 By
… Why are you looking at me like that? i haven’t had enough sleep OK!
LOL
The edge(hog) of evil! Mouaaaahhh!
I love that last one! It completely explains my mood on a bad day.

Friend requests will not be ignored. They will be actively sneered at, spit upon, and gleefully denied.
OMG you gotta love that weim ♥♥ floppy liiiiiiiiiiips!! *faints*
It is my humble pleasure to be hachhkkthhed at by these cuties.
“hachhkkthhed”!!!!!
The ninja ham and the white kitty were probably my two fave posts this year..
“….with one sweep of his marghgh flarghth igth glarrthph…” is pure journalism gold.
Love the evil hedgie (the hovertext is priceless)
OMG! NTMTOM takes cute to new heights! Particularly love the Weimaraner!
I “know” the top guy. I’ve worked with him for one of my pieces.
OOOOH, I hadn’t seen the Orange Cat o’ Death. All of them are just so wonderful! But, the OCo’D is just “indescribably delicious”!
DEATH RAY!(S)
P.S. Not to be off topic here.. But I have to say… I am lovin’ my CO calendar. I still have it on the first day though… I love that “owche” picture!!!!
I also don’t remember the OCoD; I’ll scroll back up to it after leaving this observation to see its original post & such.
Thanks for the Disapproval, guys!!!! Truly causes an Attitude Adjustment in the viewer!!!
IT’s Mevin… Top Pick.. In all his adorableness. LOL
HEhehehe!
omg, this is the funniest post in a long time.
Flappy lips. BTPBTPBTPBTPBTPTH!
What does it say about me that three of these pics (the hedgehog, the hamster, and the orange “crabby cat”) were my absolute favorites and at one time or another graced my desktop last year?
You know, when a cat stares at you like that – and we’ve all gotten that stare or variations of it – there’s just nothing scarier and nothing cuter. Just DARING you to laugh before they fall back asleep or whatever.
Thanks for the memories, NTMTOM. (This post could maybe use a bunny disapproval rating?)
I think Pancake, from the January 2 post has already won this category.
However the Weimeraner personifies out and out boredom and ennui.
First is pic of Melvin, who has an awesome blog (and an even more awesome human taking care of him)

Oh my, I had forgotten about how fantastic the ninja ham is. That, plus cracking open the CO page-a-day calendar at work, has brightened up a bad case of the Mondays (esp coming to work after a vacation :O )
That white kitty post was among my most favorite of NTMTOM’s masterpieces last year. Just seeing that kitty’s face cracked me up all over again!
Oh, thank you for the grumpy post! I feel like kitteh #1. When I was 13, my parents sent me to charm school after I drank MD 20/20 with school chums.
Next time I’m having a bad hair day (which is 8 out of 10, so it should be soon), I’ll try to remember my good fortune not to be having a bad ear hair day.
The mouse going to town on the piece of pasta is great.
that orange kitty is THIZZIN’. srsly.
Hope doggeh doesn’t live around a shipyard! (loose lips, etc. — heh-heh)
Lip flappage!!!!! *thud*
I”m waiting for the head to spin around in that last pic.
Tehehehhe
The very first kitten looks sort of like that doll from “Childs Play” chucky….*shivers*
White kitty was one of my most favorite posts from last year!
Schblatz Beer Kitten for the ALL-TIME WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11
@Holly
ChuckY!!!! oh no!
I love that little white kitten but the hovertext on the mouse FTW !!
I love all of the kitteh pics, but the leeps on the pooch are to die for!! I would play with those silly things for…well…until he walked away, pretty much…
Love the whiteness on the bleah Kitteh though!!
Oh and I’m loving my CO desktop Calendar!! I’ve already peeked at this week’s selections!!
loves it…one of my cats loves to express his disapproval and is so good at it that we have a special name for this behavior.. when he disapproves we say “looks like he’s going Dick Cheney on us”
awesome… love these pics!
~Dan
I agree: I love that “owche” picture on Jan. 1st so much that I’ve put it up on my desk in a prominent position!!! Thanks again for a wunnerful CO calendar!
Can someone explain to me how the hamster picture is even possible? It looks like a cartoon. I have hammies and I have never seen them do that with their moufs. Sometimes they yawn, but that is it.
I only hope his muzzlepowche wasn’t injured by the uncooked noodle! Can someone please reassure me that he is OK?
Weimaraner, in George Sanders voice: “I cannot TELL you how UNUTTERABLY tedious I find you.”
Thanks for reprising these excellent pics.
Weimy lip puddles FTW!
HA! That hamster’s expression is exactly like Calvin’s in the comic Calvin and Hobbes!
hachhkkthhed??? I can’t WAIT to see that entry in the glossary.
[Um, pro-o-o-obably not.
- Ed.]
Holly: Jeez. I never thought a cat could resemble Chucky but this kitty manages it quite nicely! A cat that looks like Chucky and a hamster that looks like Calvin!
LOL at that hamster!!!!! He looks like a wise guy from Joisey.
Office Kittehs FTW!
No disapproving buns? How can this be?
sam waterson is a cyclist
like me
otherwise i should positively despise him for depriving us of interminable rehashing of calvin n’ hobbes themes in perpetuity
but he is a cyclist
like me
so i get it
i can get the same effect by reading the originals over and over and over and over and over…
Aww… it’s like they’re Jamie and the top ten list is Adam.
[You speak my language - Ed.]
That orange cat was my Facebook profile pic for most of 2009. Friends constantly begged me to change it. It sort of looks like my mother.
You guys totally nailed it. That hammy TOTALLY looks like Calvin. Perfect.
I am large, gray, and my jowls are as tired and forlorn as my soul…. Do you have any bacon?
Patito — so true! They even include redheads and (sorta) mustaches! (sp?)
Oh, Nicole M., I’ll bet your mother is MUCH better looking than that! (I hope)
Aimz – what else could you call those but lip puddles! Wish I’d thought of that!
And… WHINE!! Where’s my CO calendar?! I ordered SOOO long ago — well, yesterday, but i WANT it!! WHINE!!
Is the furious ginger kitty related to Oh Don Piano? Looks like the right expression for that conversation!!
It is so hard to pick, them all are so cute and funny.
Keep the cutness coming =>
These are priceless!
The Hammie Ninja is probably my personal favorite this year. Quite the evil cackle that one has.
wow the last one… so so garfield… CUUTEEEEE!!!!
Jamie: So, Adam, what’s in the basket?
Adam: Kittens!
Jamie: Kittens?
Adam: Today we are going to test the myth that “cuteness” can make a human head explode.
Jamie: (shrugs) I like explosions.
[Well s***, I don't seem to have that episode on my iThing.
- Ed.]
LOL oh Calvin… thanks CO for reminding me of this crazy lil hammie
You can only get it on iWeasel, Theo.
[iWish - Ed.]
me too me too! stared down AND tackled:
